The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The Company is a private company limited by shares and is incorporated in England. The principle place place of business is shown on the company information page.

After making appropriate enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group and the Company have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they have chosen to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Group's financial statements.

Santiago Metals II UK Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is C/O Corporation Service Company (UK) Limited, 5 Churchill Place, 10th Floor, London, United Kingdom, E14 5HU.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

The financial statements are prepared in dollars, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest $.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

The financial statements contain information about Pembroke Resources II UK Ltd as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group.

The Company has availed its self an exemption in accordance with FRS 102 paragraph 9.9C(a) and with sections s402 and s405(3)(c) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements. The Company is held as part of an investment portfolio with investments being classified at cost less impairment.

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis for the reason set out in the director's report under the heading "Going Concern".

Fixed asset investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. The director determines the classification of the financial assets at initial recognition.

Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. In this case, the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar instrument.

Basic financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans and loans from fellow group companies, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constituted a financing transaction. In this case, the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar instrument. Basic financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Financial assets and liabilities that are classified as payable or receivable within one year on initial recognition are measured at the undiscounted amounts of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, net of impairment.

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of the issuing the equity instruments, If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated into the respective functional currency of the entity at the rates prevailing on the reporting period date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the initial transaction dates. Non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The estimates and assumptions which have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are outlined below:

Impairment of investment property

Investment property is held at cost less depreciation and is reviewed for impairment if circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverable amounts are determined based on value-in-use calculations and estimated sales proceeds. These calculations require assumptions to be made regarding future cash flows and the choice of a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. Actual outcomes may vary from these estimates.
